Are you guys sure all the bugs have been worked out?

The site is operating extremely slow right now.

Also, about 15 minutes ago, at approximately 8:35 AM on 11/21/23, when I tried to click on sabas's thread about trying out a PRS SE for the first time, something started downloading onto my computer. :cry:

I cancelled the download as fast as I could and then took a screen shot.

Then when trying to post this thread I got this message:

Then this:

Is this the signal that the alien invasion has begun? If so, I've got to make sure I have enough Temptations cat treats in my bug out bag.

I was experiencing the same thing this morning; the site was extremely slow to load the page, not loading it at all sometimes.

Now it´s normal. I even checked the site in "is it down or it´s just me" page, and it said it was me.

I didn´t experienced any downloading attempt, though.

I noticed the same thing earlier and sent @LightWingStudios an email. It seems to be worse when using MS Edge browser but still very slow loading if using Chrome

I'll bet that's normal and the only reason it's seen is that the site is loading so slowly. Normally, it's too fast to see...

TMC did you get that pic of Rasputen I sent you. If not, maybe the spirit of Rasputen is caught in the works, trying to find his doppelgänger .

Here it is, again, for others to enjoy. Okay, maybe its "doppleganger" after playing a three day concert.

Oh yeah, site wasn't working this morning.

Yes, I got that pic. I see the resemblance, though I believe he looks slightly more sane than me.

Well, I've got nine who live entirely inside, and they like all different flavor Temptations. Some like chicken, others like tuna, or dairy. Nobody seems to like shrimp flavor or bbq, so I don't get that anymore. I've tried to get them the Walmart knock of version of Temptations, ya know, to save some money. They just looked at me like . . . "What in the hell is this sh*t?!?" Cats aren't stupid, they know, they like good stuff. The outdoor cats, they're slightly less picky.

I'm down to six inside and a stray and feral outside who, because they frequently leave plenty of food uneaten, most likely have a few other neighbors feeding them as well. Possums, raccoons, blue jays, and an occasional armadillo finish it off.

I also got the same reaction when I tried Walmart's house brand stuff.

I believe the board tried to pass him "a cookie" so it can keep track of where he is on the board & what he is doing.
